I wanted to pass on a tip about repairing broken fairings, recently I bought a ZZR250 with a busted fairing and a small section near the break was missing. I could have had it plastic welded, but that costs alot of coin, so I tried Qbond adhesive. ( thanks Chris Dupen from Netbikes for the tip) Its a 2 stage process whereby you apply the powder to the cracked area, then apply the liquid on top, this stuff sets in about 10 seconds and is extremely strong. I paid $30 for a very small amount from Repco, but my ZZR fairing is now sorted, just needs a sand and some paint. Thanks Kiffsta
Hey Trev I have used it on a few panels in the past, generally it works really well for simple plastic breaks or re-attaching posts from side covers, but you have to sand and repaint after using it. Plastic welding is still a better option, IMO. Will posts some before and after pics next time I use it. Chris
as most fairing are abs plastic these days if you can find it in a plumbing supplies abs plastic cement is the way to goes as it forms new plastic i use abs plastic welding rods myself
i have been fixing all kinds of stuff for years with jb weld, fuel tanks, radiators, fairings, toys, radio control cars etc you name it cheapest place i know to buy it from is www.liquidrc.com in the usa, they ship r/c parts world wide for just $1 http://www.liquidrc.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=0&products_id=21930
